9.0 LATCH  
9.1 What is LATCH?  
United States Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards have defined a  
system for installing child restraints in vehicles. The system is called LATCH.  
LATCH stands for:  
Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren.  
LATCH in the vehicle consists of a top tether anchor point and two lower anchor  
points.  
Some vehicle owner manuals use the term ISOFIX to identify the new child  
restraint anchor system. This child restraint with LATCH can also be used in  
vehicle seating positions equipped with ISOFIX.  
Newer vehicles have one or more seating positions with LATCH anchor points.  
If vehicle is equipped with LATCH, the vehicle lower anchor points may be  
visible at the vehicle seat crease. If not visible, they may be marked with this  
symbol  
CHECK vehicle owner’s manual for vehicle top tether anchor locations. They  
may be identified using one of the anchor symbols as shown  
.
.
ONLY use LATCH on a child restraint in a seating position recommended by  
vehicle manufacturer.  
25  
NOTE: Some vehicle manufacturers have lower maximum weight ratings for  
LATCH anchors, so you must consult your vehicle owner’s manual or call the  
vehicle manufacturer to confirm the limits on your vehicle’s LATCH anchors.  
Use vehicle belt (not LATCH connectors) for installations with children  
weighing more than 48 pounds (21.7 kg).

9.2 LATCH System  
LATCH consists of a permanently  
attached lower anchor belt and a top  
tether strap.  
ONLY use LATCH in a seating  
position recommended by vehicle  
manufacturer.  
LATCH lower vehicle anchor points  
are defined as 11 inches from the  
center of one LATCH anchor to the  
center of another LATCH anchor.  
If allowed by your Vehicle Owners  
Manual, the center seating position  
maybe used if the anchor spacing is  
11” or greater.

11.0 Securing the Child Restraint in Your Vehicle  
FAILURE TO PROPERLY SECURE THE CHILD RESTRAINT IN  
THE VEHICLE INCREASES THE CHILD’S RISK OF  
SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH IN THE EVENT OF A SHARP  
TURN, SUDDEN STOP OR CRASH. Carefully follow these instructions and those in your vehicle  
owner’s manual to be sure your child restraint is properly positioned and held tightly at all times.  
11.1 Using a Child Restraint WITH a Built-in Harness  
11.2 With a Vehicle Lap or Lap/shoulder Belt:  
Lower anchors must be stored when using vehicle belt.  
See Section 19.1, Storing LATCH, page 60.  
1. Place the child restraint firmly against the back of a  
forward-facing vehicle seat.  
2. Thread the seat belt through the belt slot openings:  
For Lap/Shoulder belt  
For Lap-only belt  
3. Buckle the vehicle belt. The vehicle belt should not be  
twisted.  
34  
4. Tighten vehicle seat belt  
Push down hard with your knee or free hand  
in the middle of the child restraint . Then pull  
and tighten the shoulder portion of the  
lap/shoulder belt.  
5. While pulling the shoulder portion of the

opened lock-off š and snap the lock-off over the  
shoulder belt .  
Two lock-offs are provided to allow for the seat to  
be installed on the right or left side of the vehicle  
seat. Only use one lock-off at a time. NEVER  
try to use both lock-offs when installing the child  
restraint.  
DO NOT try to close the lock-off over anything  
but the shoulder portion of the vehicle  
lap/shoulder belt. If any other part of the belt  
is in the way then try another seat location.
